Best of 2019 Countdown #14 :: Team Covers in the Les Mis London concert production. [ 15 ]

The cover contingent for this production really was a roll call of mostly previous West End cast members reprising their former roles or fresh, sparky faces who brought something interesting to the show when needed during the concert run. Massive cheers to many. Covers included Adam Bayjou (Valjean), Rosanna Bates (Fantine), Earl Carpenter (Javert, with alternate Valjean John Owen Jones), Katie Kerr (Madame Thenardier), Stephen Matthews (Thenardier), Rosa O’Reilly (Eponine); Craig Mather (Marius), Holly Anne Hull (Cosette), Vinny Coyle (Enjolras) and Ciaran Bowling (Grantaire).

We were blessed, too, by a rare photograph of a full second cover principals cast, to my delight: Oliver Brenin (Grantaire), Ciaran Joyce (Marius), Samantha Dorsey (Cosette), Nicola Espallardo (Eponine), Tamsin Dowsett (Madame Thenardier), Christopher Jacobsen (Valjean), Leo Roberts (Javert), Oliver Jackson (Thenardier), Sophie Reeves (Fantine), Barnaby Hughes (Enjolras), and Andrew York (Bishop).
